Creating a Hardware Layout Configuration
A new installation of a PowerFocus 6000 StepSync system does not contain any previous hardware layout configurations. Each time you connect ToolsTalk 2 to a StepSync controller and the Hardware layout Configuration is empty you will need to either create a new configuration, or extract the current controller hardware setup.
To create a hardware layout configuration, you must first start with a PF6000 Sync Reference controller from the Tool Box.
Start by dragging a Sync Reference controller to the Drop here area and drop it. Indicators are displayed after it has been dropped and you can point to a symbol to get a tooltip.
Add Sync Member controllers to a Sync Reference controller.
Add one of the available tools from the Tool Box to each controller. When pointing to a target controller with a tool, the target controller will change color:
Red: invalid drop
Blue: valid drop
To move, select and drag the product.
To copy, press Ctrl and drag the product.
To delete, choose the product, or hold Ctrl and select many, and then press Delete. A Sync Reference controller with connected Sync Members and tools can only be deleted when it is the single remaining product, or when all other products are deleted simultaneously.
After creation, push the changes to the controller. The hardware deployment status will change after validation.
